Dieters are usually shocked to find out how small a serving really in when the diet demands just one chapati it means the size of your hand with fingers spread out, and not a 20 cm one!

If you have weakness for sweets, satisfy your sweet tooth. Choose a sweet like a candy or peppermint which has only 25 calories, last for quite some while in your mouth, and tastes heavenly. If it is a high calories sweet, take just a bite. A taste is what you want, and not the calories.

Sometimes, it is just better to get away from the house when your mind stubbornly refuses to leave the food scene. Just take a walk, or visit a neighbour, or do some essential shopping, but beware of buying those goodies that are satanic temptations to your diet upset.
